INTRODUCTION. 



f 



The increasing interest of the public in the old wills filed 

the office of the Secretary of State has caused the Trustees 
*"' the Public Libraries to authorize the Secretary of State to 

epare the within publication. An abstract of every will 
' und in the office of the Secretary of State is published 

':ein. These abstracts show the name of the testator, place 
"*'^ residence, names of wife, children, legatees, witnesses, 
probate officer, etc. ; also, names of plantations mentioned and 
remarkable items or noteworthy passages in wills. 

The first record I have been able to find providing for the 
keeping of wills in the office of the Secretary of State is the 
following order : 

Order'd that a Commission be Deliver"d to ye Honble Majr Samuel 
Swanu Esqr Secretary of State for this province Impowering him to 
keep an office for ye proving of Wills Granting administrats & pro- 
betts and all other Matters for ye Ordering & Securing of Dead

7. xVikI every prson who shall obtain admintrati or Probett s 
within one year after such adminstrat. or probatt obtaind bring i 
true Inventory with acct of ye Estate in their hands until 1 
shall obtaine furtlier time which ye sd Officer hath power & lib< 
to grant. 

The original of this paper was found by the late J. R. 
Hathaway in the courthouse at Edenton/ This order 
without date, but was issued about 1700, as Samuel Swf 
was Secretary of State in that year and the first of 
records are dated at that time. 

The next legislation I find in reference to wills is an 
of the General Assembly of 1715, chapter 48, the capti . 
and first three sections of which are as follows : 

AN ACT CONCERNING PEOVEING WILLS AND GRANTING LI - 
TERS OF ADMINISTRATION AND TO PREVENT FRAUD ■: 
IN THE MANAGEMENT OF INTESTATES ESTATES. 

I. Be It Enacted by his Excellency the Pallatine & and the rest ' f 
the True & Absolute Lords Proprietors of the Province of Caroli ■ -. 
by & with the advice & consent of the rest of the Members of 1 
General Assembly now met at Little River for the No. East part 
the province & by the Authority of the same. 

II. It is Hereby Enacted & declared that all Wills »& Administi 
tions heretofore proved & granted by the Council, General Cou 
Precinct Court or by powers or Commission lieretofore granted 
any Governor, Deputy Governor, President & Council to any particul 
person or persons shall be deemed adjudged & taken to be good 
effectual to all Intents & Purposes whatsoever as if proved before < 
granted by any Ordinary or other Ecclesiastical Judge or person. 

III. And Be It Further Enacted by the Authority afors'd that 
shall & may be lawfull for the Governor or Commander in Chief f 
the time being the General Court or Precinct Court to have Wil 
proved before them and Grant Orders for Administration. Providt 
the same be not repugnant to the Rules & Methods prescribed 
this Act And Provided that the Granting Letters Testamentary < 
Letters of Administration allways Excepted which shall be allwaj 
from & after the Ratification of this Act signed by the Governor o 
Commander in Chief for the time being and sealed with the Colon 
seale & only Issuing out of the Secretary's Office & Counter signe 
by the Secretary or Deputy. ******** 

This act validates probates up to that time, confirms let 
ters of administration previously granted and provides fo 
the better regulation of these matters.

and Joseph E. Sawyer^ the proof read by Messr:-. W. P. 
Batcheloe and Joseph E. Sawyer, and the index made by 
Mr. W. P. Batchelor. To these gentlemen I desire to 
make acknowledgment for their faithful service. 

It is expected that this work will be interesting and helpful 
in genealogical research and especially valuable as illustra- 
tive of the domestic history of our people. It will also be 
found useful in tracing titles to properties.

are referred to as ''father" or ''motber." The term "cousin" 
will be frequently found to mean nephew or niece. 

It is interesting to note that in wills prior to 1752, two 
years are generally named for dates in the months of Janu- 
ary, February and March; for instance, January 20, 1718-9; 
but this was not always the case, and occasionally only one 
year is given. As examples, see wills of 

Catkeeine BusbeY;, made January 22, 1738-9. Proved / 
February Court, 1738. 

Thomas Barclift, made November 14, 1750. Proved 
at January Court, 1750. 

Nicholas Blackman^ made August 2G, 1730. Probatcfl 
March 11, 1730. 

On the continent and in Scotland the Gregorian Calenda 
was in use, but it was not adopted in England until 1751 
when Parliament passed "An Act for Regulating the Com- 
mencement of the Year, and for Correcting the Calendar 
now in use." This act provided that the year begin on the 
first day of January, 1752, and not on the twenty-fifth of 
March, as was then the usage. The same act provided that 
eleven days be omitted in September, 1752,^ "and that tllie 
natural Day next immediately following the said second Dsjiy 
of September, shall be called, reckoned and accounted to he 
the fourteenth Day of September, omitting for that Tii 
only the eleven intermediate nominal Days of the comr 
Calendar, and that the several natural Days which/ 

follow and succeed next after the said fourteenth / \ 

J y 

September shall be respectively called, reckoned a\i ^ ^ 

bered forwards in numerical Oi"der from the said fourteenth 

Day of September, according to the Order and Succession of 

Days now used in the Present Calendar." If this is kept in 

mind, it will reconcile many apparently contradictory dates. 

The abstracts were . ared by Messrs. Wm. H. Sawyer

tliis may be done in Virginia; after which let them learn French; perhaps

to each of my executors a gold ring as a token of the respect, etc. I will 
that a brick Vault may be built at Groveley and my Dear Wife's body taken
